		<description>Haven&#039;t we heard this before? Isn&#039;t the good news &quot;just about to start&quot; in NeoCon land? The fact is that Lebanon is becoming more strongly Shia as their birth rate soars and the Christian Lebanese, the ones who stage those over-publicized cedar-flag demonstrations, give up and leave the country. The strongest force in the country is Hezbollah. The strongest force in Iraq is the Mahdi Army, very similar to Hezbollah. And yet the NeoCons/Likud, who gave Hezbollah and Sadr their opportunities and made them what they are today, continue to promise us that &quot;Spring is just around the corner&quot;! Do they realize how bitterly sarcastic that sounds?</description>

		<description>Having been to Iraq and been privy to establishing the election process there and witness to 2 them, I choose to remain pessimistic until I&#039;m surprised in a couple of decades.
As for fighting them &quot;there as opposed to here&quot;, it&#039;s going to come down to individuals to decide where to draw the line in America, because kids, it&#039;s coming here, and sooner than Iraq has a &quot;Spring&quot;.</description>

		<description>David Thomson:

I have long contended that the American people will eventually be proud that our troops liberated the Iraqi people. As matter of fact, I boldly predict that this will take place no later than June of this year.
The MSM is decreasingly finding it difficult to hide the good news. 

We had to impose a new order in Iraq—for their sakes and our’s. It would be foolish to allow those people to continue living in the 8th Century.

========
Typical american ignorance. That is why you respect.

Number one) america or its politicians had no mandate for that. The mandate was &quot;weapons of mass destruction&quot; and reported, counter intuitive (ultimately false), ties to al quai ida.

Number two) Iraq (that&#039;s &#039;ee-rock&#039; kids)--a sunni bathist country-- was not in the &quot;8th century&quot; at all.

Number three) there is no divine automatic reason to &#039;lead mankind out of&#039; the &quot;8th century&quot;. Western &quot;growth&quot; (to ever new centuries&quot;) --which is, btw, feminist liberal, with all its pathology, unique to western culture-- is not simply a destined thing that man must follow.</description>

		<description>If you mean &quot;toward tradition&quot;, that would be &quot;ad traditionem&quot;. If you mean &quot;from tradition&quot;, that would be &quot;a traditione&quot;. Never try to fake Latin.</description>
